Lake Texoma

We had a great time at lake Texoma.  Day loved being on vacation.  Jason went fishing and had a blast.  He really enjoyed the fishing guide.  They were both big hunters.  Day, Jason, and I played ping pong.  Day hit the ball hard and said "in your face!"  While driving back to the hotel the "little white church" song came on.  Day started singing "take me down" " no more chicken and gravy".  She learns songs very fast. We also noticed her singing, "lover, lover, lover, you don't treat me no good no more." This is without the song playing on the radio.  She also knows the words to the "hallelujah" song.  When I got up to sing karaoke she wanted to go with me.  She stood by me while I sang "phones are ringing". We went up the morning Daddy went up to fish and ate breakfast (just the two of us) at their swanky eating place.  Day ate her chocolate milk out of a wine glass.  To top it all off they only charged us for one kids meal because she said we didn't eat very much!   Here are some pics. 

The view from the tower lounge at Tanglewood.  There was also a small dancefloor and sometimes live music in the lounge.

Playing in the game room.

At the pool.  There were three pools with waterfalls between each pool.

We went horseback riding at the Rock-N-A Ranch.  Day got ride on the horse with her daddy, and we went for a thirty minute trail ride.

Getting a pedicure!

I was surprised at how much she really enjoyed this!

Our finished toes!

We stopped at Arbuckle Wilderness on our way home.

Day thought it was so funny when the animals would stick their heads in our car especially the ostriches and emus.

We took this funny little monkey back home with us!

First Day of School

Dayona did great on her first day of school.  She did not cry, but I can't say the same for Mommy.  Her paper she brought home said she was very happy at school.  She told her she loved the children and dressed up as a doctor.  Her paper said she also played dishes and dolls. 

She rode the bus for the first time that next Monday.  This is her first time getting off the bus!

Me signing her out.

She's always happy when she gets off and tells me the bus is fun.

Bible Schools

Day went to three bible schools this summer.  The first one was at the First Baptist Church.  Her nana went with her.  She did wonderful!!  She knew her memory verse and loved playing with the kids.  The three year olds were the star of the show at the program.  Day was the only one in her group who sang the words and knew the right actions even after only 4 days of practicing the song one time a day.  The next bible school was at the Church of Christ.  At this bible school she was the only one who sang and did actions after only practicing one time!  The last bible school was at the Missionary Baptist Church.  Day did great and even got to pick a prize for being the best behaved.  We are soo proud of her!

Singing!

Summer Fun

Day is having a wonder Summer.  We went swimming 3 times this week.  One time at Hinton, one time at Hydro, and one time with Daddy at Mustang.  She loves to jump to me from the edge.  At lunch today she turned around started shaking her hiney, then raised her skirt up and pulled her panties down!!  It has been fun spending time with her this Summer.  I also had a blast seeing Tamra and Kyley on Thursday.   Day is learning to write her name, she LOVES to play school (in fact alot of times I have to tell her I'm tired of playing school), she also loves playing with her little people, and Mr. potato head.  Dakota and I sang 'American Honey" at a church function a couple of weekends ago.  Last week the song came on the radio, and Day started to hum it and sing some of the words.  I couldn't beleive she learned it so quickly just from overhearing it.  Then she said "it that what you and Koda sing?"  Also we were at my mom's house when Day was playing with her fake plates.  She wanted some "pretend" food.  My mom offered to get her some chocolate chip cookies to put on her plate, but she wasn't happy with that.  Then my mom said we can use your captain crunch and Day said "I know I know, or we can use our imagination!"  She says something fun everyday!!  We also had a "camp out" in the backyard.  Here are some pics from this month.

She loves her Kenna.

This is her own writing of a D a.  All we need is the y!

For some reason she had to wear her coat and hat, she put them on herself, and ask me to "take a picture."

This is us at our "campout."

The family on the way to the Mustang pool.  It was a great pool!  We had to get out early because of lightning, but I'm glad because I don't think she would have came home willingly otherwise!

Eufaula 2010

We had a great fourth, other than the fact that my 3 year old dipped snuff and we are embarrassing parents all went well. Yes, some person (who will remain nameless) was watching her and putting her into the car at golden corral. When I got in the car, I saw her turn around in the front seat and start throwing up. At least Json caught it! My mom and I went to clean her up. On the way back to the car she said "that water in that cup, I think it's old." My mom immediately knew what she had done. She never cried or anything, what a brave girl! This is just one week after she jumped into the deep end of the pool at Terry Byrd's house. Luckily he fished her out quickly. She loves the water, but isn't fond of floaties. On the way to golden corral she told us "don't embarrass me". Then after we got home she was upset that Kenna wasn't home. "But she's alone, and she's my sister, she's my family". We told her we would go get her tomorrow. We loved feeding the horses, swimming, and seeing Freddie's house. We love this tradition! Oh and according to Day, Jason and I are "poops together"!

She loved asking people if they needed a pop!

Getting ready to go shopping.

Day told me today she had to get money and went into Jason's coffee cans to get change.  When I ask her why she said "for the children".  Later she brought me the change for children can that we are doing at church.  I didn't even tell her about it! 

She found something new to climb.

Summer is here

Today Jason got Day a surprise, and he did it all by himself.  It was a princess slip and slide, and she loved it.  She kept saying "oh thank you daddy."  She loves it! 

Earlier we were outside and Day wanted me to let her in to get a jacket (which I thought was odd).  I let her in and she came outside wearing her lifejacket, then she got in her pool. 

When Jason got up this morning, he got ready to go a Union Meeting.  Day walked in and said "Daddy don't go to work".  Then she said "stay here and play with me and Kenna" (I think she really thinks of Kenna as her sister), "we are family". 

This is picture taken after Nana brought Day back from vacation bible school sign-up.  She did very well.  Someone even commented on how social she was.  She would go to other children and say"what you name is"?

This is a pictured she colored for Nana all by herself.  She even matched the crayon colors to the pictures by herself.  I'm very proud and secretly hope she always, "colors outside the lines!"

She got really close to an almost broken window today in our living room.  I pulled her to the side and said,"don't get near that window it could hurt you, and mommy would be sad if her baby was hurt."  To which she replied with a "bit" of a tantrum, "I'm not a baby, I'm a big girl!"  "Yes you are a big girl" I said, and I was thinking you are too big already.

Lastly,  What is coming out of the box?

A mole that sprung out of the ground as Day was playing on her slide.  So we set him free to be with his momma.

Yes, she pet him.

See ya later, mole!
